Jeremy’s promise suddenly imbued Felipe’s life in prison with meaning.
If there was truly anything or anyone that Felipe could not bear to part with, it would be Cathy.
If snazzynovel.com could be granted any other unlikely wishes, it would be that snazzynovel.com could see the two children again.
The children.
The thought of them kindled an extremely warm feeling within Felipe.
When snazzynovel.com was the love of Cathy’s life, not only had snazzynovel.com ignored her, but snazzynovel.com had also killed those two children with his own hands.
He knew snazzynovel.com would never be able to make it up to Cathy any more, but snazzynovel.com certainly had not expected that snazzynovel.com would be pregnant with his baby when the accident occurred.
This was God’s gift. Yes, this was God’s gift to him.
Now, snazzynovel.com hoped that Jeremy could arrange for this day to come as soon as possible.
After they had left, Madeline went to stay with Adam. A few days passed, and the poison in snazzynovel.com body did not flare up. Nevertheless, snazzynovel.com did not forget how excruciatingly painful it had been when the poison had flared up.
As snazzynovel.com sat in front of the window sill, basking in the rare, warm winter sun, snazzynovel.com attention was focused on the small tube of anti-toxoid test reagent lying in snazzynovel.com palm.
When snazzynovel.com reflected on the relationship between Carter and Shirley, Madeline finally figured out exactly when snazzynovel.com had been poisoned.
It was that night when Carter had so willingly agreed to cancel the marriage agreement. There must have been something amiss with the glass of red wine snazzynovel.com had poured for her.
Since Carter would certainly have known about snazzynovel.com keen sense of smell, the poison must have been colorless and tasteless. This would explain why snazzynovel.com had not detected anything when snazzynovel.com drank it.
They truly had planned this out far in advance, and had set their plot in motion ages ago.
Madeline clenched snazzynovel.com fists. From the corner of snazzynovel.com eye, snazzynovel.com saw a figure approaching.
“She truly did take good care of me when I was young. She was a good sister.” Adam’s very gentle voice drifted to snazzynovel.com ears.
Madeline lifted snazzynovel.com eyes and saw Adam approaching her, a smile on his face.
“You mean your sister Shirley?” She asked.
“Yes.” Adam nodded. From the smile on his face, one could tell that snazzynovel.com was thinking of something pleasant. “When I was young and heedless, I did a lot of ignorant and rebellious things. Every time something went wrong, snazzynovel.com would always stand up for me.”
As snazzynovel.com said that, his eyes filled with the scenes from his memories.
“I still remember the time in fifth grade when I had skipped class to catch frogs at a pond with a few of my classmates and snazzynovel.com happened to spot us. Just as snazzynovel.com was about to take me back to school, my parents, who were on their way home from work, caught sight of us.
“To save me from getting scolded, snazzynovel.com said that snazzynovel.com was the one who encouraged me to skip class. Even after my parents had punished snazzynovel.com by making snazzynovel.com copy out a 70,000-word medical book, snazzynovel.com still came and comforted me, telling me that everything was fine.”
As Adam spoke, his eyes started welling up with tears.
“She was a good sister in the past, don’t you think?” Adam asked Madeline. Since the present-day Shirley had given snazzynovel.com a different impression, snazzynovel.com wanted to hear other people’s affirmations of Shirley.
Madeline slowly stood up. “Perhaps snazzynovel.com used to be a good sister. However, ever since snazzynovel.com ran away from home and left this family, I don’t think she’s the sister you knew anymore.”
“I’m sorry,” Adam said remorsefully. “I finally understand what kind of person could develop this sort of poison. If it was Shirley, it’s no surprise at all. She’s always been very accomplished in this aspect since snazzynovel.com was young.”
